In Coach Vic's five years at Texas....

...mind you in the toughest conference in the country, he has three Elite 8's, one loss in the final 32, and last year's Final Four. He has the top recruiting class coming next year. How will we fair this year? The top seed is important. This is an amazing run in just six years! Coaching matters.

If Texas can hit 5 or more 3-pointers a game, they can beat anyone, even UConn.  They start hitting that many, that negates the advantage teams like UConn, UCLA, Vandy, etc. have in perimeter shooting over Texas.  Texas does a good job of drawing fouls and getting to the line.

Can’t beat teams like that going 0-6 from three. To win in the Final Four and national championship game, gotta get at least five threes from Booker, Crump, and Lee.  Anyone else like Carlton, Harmon, etc. is a bonus.  I’m sure they’ll make it to the Elite Eight at worst, but to win it all, they have to space the floor more offensively.  That will help cut down their turnovers when trying to pass it into the frontcourt as well.

Vic needs Booker to be more of an assassin.  She defers a lot on scoring, we need her to take over games and she hasn't done that a lot

Our incoming girls are all quite capable of hitting threes. Holguin has a deadly shot from the outside. Ashton Judd and Jordan Lee were supposed to be our snipers this year, but have failed miserably.  Aaliyah Crump has hit a freshman wall after coming back from injury, so you can't count on her three point shot. What I don't get is why Preston, Harmon, and Booker are so afraid to shoot the three.
